Getting started.

I'm just going to admit it now: I was a teenager once that had no idea of value or that treating stuff badly would soon make them look bad or lost. So this holiday season I cleaned up the house, found all my 2600 carts strewn about. seriously, I was 5 minutes away from being on an episode of Hoarders, but I turned around!

 

Now I'm in the process of cleaning up. with the help of a psychologist, I can now determine what is trash and what isn't. All souveniers I never looked at? Gone. Game systems? Cleaned up and stored. I can't let myself do this again. I was literally killing myself in trash.

 

Now that I got that aired out. I can actually sit down and clean my systems. I have one mint-condition system, sans heavy dust, but my 2nd system has seen better days. I'm going to attempt a cleanup. Dust and mites, moths and other junk got in it, and it just looks horrible. I'll post an image when I have the thing cleaned up.

 

Ok, the first pic is my loot. Since I half-assed cared for these games, labels have fallen off. mostly parker brothers ones. I do have a space invaders missing a label. Oh well.

 

My river raid looks like absolute crap. like, not even Harvey Dent looked this bad.

 

On the other hand, I've already cleaned one of my consoles before I posted this (it was pretty much perfect anyway) and it shines! 2nd pic is of that console. He's not heavy, but he's still my brother.

I prefer to think of dust and dirt as layer of protection against the elements. You can wash it off anytime for a sparkling item.

Oh, I hear that. Both are pretty clean now. I'm going to look for my Aerial RF /Coax plug later today. I bought one a while back but never got around to using it. those switchboxes are so annoying!

 

Glad to be back, though!
